Dingwall as a town hasn't changed since I first visited it with my parents when I was about 7 or 8 I think, which was in the early 1960's. There isn't an awful lot to do at night in all honesty, I get the impression that most people that go up and stay overnight tend to do so in Inverness and travel to/from Dingwall either by bus or taxi.

It was the county town of Ross Shire (hence the name!) but it has very much been eclipsed by Inverness which makes County doing better than the “Highland Capital” all the sweeter. You would be better to stay in Inverness (far bigger choice of bars & accommodation etc) and travel through for the game, but go a wee bit early for a drink, County fans are a friendly lot.

My half sister Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 It's the first fixture I look for, I'm hoping Hamilton go down as well as St Mirren and ICT make it up too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackLadd Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I'd prefer United back, a ground I might actually go to and a bigger club. Agree with above on Falkirk, might be a long time before we see them in the Prem again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Muddie Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 There's around 5 teams in the 1st division i'd prefer from a "biggest club" POV but nobody should grudge them being the best team in their division. Ideally, we'd get a Dun Utd and Dunfermline coming up and Livi and Hamilton down. As it stands I'd enjoy Dundee and St Mirren going down, County and Caley coming up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross County's average attendance this season is 3871. Ayr United's is 2186. What makes Ayr a "proper club" and Ross "not a proper club"?

Ayr v Killie would sell out Somerset and a good chunk of Rugby Park. Ayr also have a proper history but I don't expect you to grasp that from your usual source which is google. If they were in the top league their crowds would blow Ross County out the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazajmbo Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 It's a nice home game for me. 12 miles from my work in Inverness. Dingwall is a dump with only a couple of crap "bars" staying in Dingwall is far far cheaper than Inverness. For those planning an over night session Inverness is best place to drink.

copa-mundial Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 People quick to forget that 800 and odd County fans that travelled down to Tynecastle during our admin season. All chipped in to give money to the club. They didn't need to do it, but they did. Gets my respect and gratitude As for them winning the league. Over the course of the season. They have been the best side. League tables don't tell lies. Well done to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
